-Flight flow chart:

After you book a plane ticket, you should immediately find out where the local terminal is. On the day of flying, you can go there directly to buy tickets and get on the bus. This bus has passed. It's usually punctual in the morning, but it's hard to say at noon. It depends on the local traffic conditions. But it's better to be half an hour early. )

1, to the airport. You should pay attention to the time, because the airline stipulates that check-in should stop 30 minutes before the flight takes off, so you'd better arrive at the airport 1 hour before the flight takes off.

2. Check in (that is, change boarding pass). Look at the counter where your flight is handled. The airport has a display screen that tells you which flight is at which counter. Find the corresponding counter and give your ticket and ID card to the airport check-in staff. If you have big luggage, please check it here. Baggage under 20 kg in economy class is free. Be careful not to carry contraband in the checked baggage. After the check-in, the check-in staff will return the ticket, boarding pass, luggage ticket and ID card to you.

3. Pass the security check. There is a security counter at the entrance of the security checkpoint. You have to give the passenger's ticket, boarding pass and ID card to the security inspector. If there is no problem, the security inspector will stamp the boarding pass. Then go through the security gate, your belongings pass through the X-ray security machine next to the security gate, and you go through the security gate yourself. If there is no problem in the security check, enter the terminal.

4. Waiting. After passing the security check, look at the boarding gate where your flight will board on the boarding pass, and find the waiting hall corresponding to the boarding gate. The boarding gate is waiting in the waiting hall. The location of each terminal will be displayed on the airport display screen. If you are not clear, you can ask the airport service staff. If you find the terminal, rest there and wait for the notice to board the plane. If you smoke, you can smoke in the smoking room. Remember to listen to the radio

Step 5 board the plane. After hearing the boarding announcement, a service person will tear up the boarding pass at the boarding gate. You can go to the boarding gate and give it to the service staff. The service staff will tear off a small piece from the boarding pass and return the rest to you. You can follow others on the plane with your boarding pass.

6. Find the position on the plane. Your boarding pass indicates your location, such as 5D, 1 1C, etc. Which row does the number stand for? The seats in each row are according to A, B, C, D, E and F.. Yes, the seat number on the plane is marked on the bulkhead where the luggage is put (above the seat). Find your seat, fasten your seat belt and turn off your cell phone before taking off.

7. Food. During the flight, airlines will give out free drinks. On long routes, if it is time for meals, there will be free meals (just a box lunch, which is not delicious, and the amount is small), and snacks will be distributed on short routes.

8. Arrive. After the plane arrives at the destination, if you have checked baggage, remember to pick it up. There will be a baggage claim area on the way to the exit.

The following are the precautions for flying:

First of all, you must pay attention to several things:

1, it is better to arrive at the airport 1 hour in advance.

2, remember to bring your ID card and air ticket, neither less.

Be sure to go through the formalities half an hour before the plane takes off. Because some airports are very strict, we will be in trouble if we don't do it then.

Second, if you have an MP4 or notebook, you can take it with you, and you can take it on the plane after the security check. The plane can't be used during take-off and landing and needs to be closed.

Third, other precautions:

When you enter the cabin, you can give your seat card to the flight attendant and ask him to show you or guide you to your seat. When you arrive at your seat, you can put your carry-on luggage in the luggage compartment at the top of the seat. You can give your coat or rain gear to the stewardess for safekeeping. You can ask the stewardess for help if you need anything on the plane. You're welcome. The plane shook badly before and after taking off and landing. Please fasten your seat belt and don't smoke.

As the plane rises, the ears will be uncomfortable because of the high altitude pressure. Chewing a piece of gum or eating something to make your mouth move can alleviate uncomfortable feelings. If there is a baby around, you can feed at this time. Shortly after take-off, the captain will give a welcome speech on the radio, and then the waiter will report the scheduled arrival time and precautions. Generally broadcast in two or three languages, such as the national language and English of airlines.

The seats on the plane are very comfortable. There is a round button below. When you want to lie on your back, press it hard and the backrest will automatically fall backwards. But when the plane takes off and lands, the backrest must be straightened and restored to its original state.

There is a small table board behind the front seat, which can be taken out for use when eating and writing letters, and put away after use, which is very convenient. There are generally two or three big bags below, including flight schedules, road maps, postcards, paper slippers, and plastic bags for vomiting. There are pillows and blankets on the overhead shelf for passengers to use. If it is not enough, you can ask the flight attendant for it. There are air conditioning holes and light buttons on the shelf or in the middle of the window, which can be started by yourself when necessary. Due to different aircraft models, the equipment will be different, and the functions generally provided are similar. Anyway, asking questions is enough.

In a safe situation, passengers sitting in the emergency exit of the plane should be absolutely careful not to lift the handrail out of curiosity, or the plane will land or crash.

Passengers can't joke about "this is a bomb", otherwise they will be detained and bear the huge expenses incurred.

Precautions:

(1) Be sure to go through the formalities half an hour before the plane takes off. Therefore, it is best to arrive at the airport in advance according to the situation, especially when there are many people during the Golden Week and Spring Festival. Some airports are very strict, so they are not allowed to do it when the time comes, such as Beijing airport.

(2) Friends who prefer window seats can ask the handlers to arrange window seats for you when changing their boarding passes. Usually no problem, unless you are late, the seat is arranged for others.

(3) When checking baggage, some airports will charge an insurance premium of about 10 yuan, such as Fuzhou Airport; If your suitcase is unlocked, some airports will force you to spend 5 yuan to buy a small lock, such as Guangzhou airport.

(4) When carrying a fruit knife, it is best to check it in the luggage, otherwise 90% may be confiscated. In addition, small animals can't be brought on the plane, and they can only be checked with quarantine certificates, which is very troublesome. Potted plants and flowers are ok.

(5) The check-in voucher is generally posted on the air ticket. When the baggage arrives and is taken out, the staff will check whether the check-in voucher matches the label on the baggage. Be careful not to take someone else's and lose yours.

Matters needing attention in flight

On holidays, traveling by air has become the choice of many people. However, flying for a long time is not a pleasant thing. Do your ears hurt when you take off and land? When flying, do you have backache and numbness in your feet? Do you feel dizzy and nauseous?

When flying becomes a part of your life, can you know what changes have taken place in your body during the flight, how to stay comfortable and healthy during the flight and avoid sudden illness?

■ Do not eat flatulence food such as beans, onions and cabbage.

Did you drink coke before boarding the plane? Did you feel bloated when you got on the plane after drinking coke? Not only carbonated drinks such as cola and sprite, but also foods rich in fiber and easy to produce gas such as beans, onions and cabbage should not be eaten before boarding the plane.

If you take a bag of puffed food on the plane, you will find that the bag will become very bulging, especially when the plane takes off. That's because in a closed space, once the external pressure becomes smaller, the gas inside will expand outward. You know, when the human body is at an altitude of 5000 meters, the gas in the body is twice that of the ground. If you eat something that causes flatulence, your stomach will swell up, which is very uncomfortable.

Similarly, don't eat too much before flying. Eating too much, on the one hand, will increase the burden of heart and blood circulation, on the other hand, it will cause nausea, vomiting, airsickness and so on. Don't eat foods that are too greasy and contain a lot of animal protein, such as braised pork, fish and shrimp. These foods are difficult to empty in the stomach and also dilate the gastrointestinal tract.

Of course, you can't be hungry. Due to the changes of altitude, temperature, air pressure and other factors, the human body needs to consume more heat during flight. Therefore, attention should be paid to the intake of high-calorie foods in the diet to ensure health. Generally, before boarding 1 hour, you can eat something, such as bread, snacks, noodles, yogurt, green leafy vegetables, lean meat, animal liver, candied fruit and so on. Don't wear tights and belts when flying. It is best to wear loose clothes and soft shoes.

■ Try not to fly when you have a cold, otherwise the symptoms of nasal congestion will be more serious and even nosebleeds.

The ears suffer the most when the plane takes off and lands. Because the pressure changes are most obvious during takeoff and landing, the eustachian sphincter will close due to the instantaneous pressure difference, and you may even hear a bang. Especially when preparing to land, the ears will hurt, and some people will even be temporarily deaf. During take-off and landing, the pressure difference between the two sides of the eustachian tube can be adjusted by swallowing saliva, such as chewing gum or wearing flying earplugs (a kind of earplug specially used to adjust the pressure change during take-off and landing). Babies can let him suck their nipples to keep the pressure balanced.

Yuan Xiaoyang, deputy chief physician of the Department of Otolaryngology of the First Hospital, believes that you should try not to fly when you have a cold. On the one hand, it is easy to infect others in a closed cabin, and most importantly, your nasal congestion symptoms will be aggravated. Because of nasal mucosal swelling, the passage between the nasal cavity and the outside world is narrow. You may still be happy when you take off in Guang Chen, because the pressure inside the nasal cavity is higher than the outside, which will open the blocked nasal passages, but you feel that your nose is "open". However, when you land, you will suffer. At this time, the external pressure is greater than the nasal cavity. If it falls too fast, the nasal passage will close quickly, causing extreme pain in the nose, which often ends in nosebleeds.

If you have ever suffered from aviation otitis media and aviation sinusitis because of flying, it is best to prepare vasoconstrictors such as nasal drops when flying in the future to reduce the swelling and edema at the eustachian tube.

■ Eating vitamin C can improve immunity.

When flying at high altitude, the air in the cabin can not be fully replaced, especially when flying for a long time, the carbon dioxide content in the cabin increases and the negative oxygen ion content decreases, and some passengers suffer from respiratory diseases, which will make people feel the air is turbid. Flying is also easy to dehydrate passengers. After sitting for a long time, blood often stays in the lower limbs. Once you get up, you will feel dizzy and even faint. Many people will have dizziness, headache, nausea, poor breathing, loss of appetite, irritability, neck and back pain, fatigue and other discomfort symptoms when flying for a long time. These are all flight syndromes, which are common in people who travel abroad.

You can take vitamin C two days before the flight, about 500 mg a day, until you reach your destination, which can not only improve your immunity, but also effectively prevent jet lag.

■ Adjust sitting posture and drink plenty of water.

During the flight, due to the low humidity in the cabin, sitting in a narrow seat for a long time, blood is concentrated in the calf, which greatly increases the probability of deep vein thrombosis. Especially smokers, fat people, women and the elderly, as well as people who have taken birth control pills or had surgery within three months before flying, the risk of blood coagulation is three times higher than that of ordinary people.

Some people are used to crossing their legs, which is dangerous. Don't put your legs together when flying, get up every hour and do some exercise, especially stretch and flex your leg muscles for 30 seconds to 1 min, and change your sitting posture to promote blood circulation of lower limbs. To prevent "economy class syndrome", we should dress loosely, adjust our sitting posture from time to time, drink plenty of water, go to the toilet more and exercise more.

People with the following diseases should not fly.

1. Infectious diseases. Patients with infectious hepatitis, active tuberculosis, typhoid fever and other infectious diseases are not allowed to fly during the isolation period stipulated by the state. Chickenpox patients can't fly because the damaged part hasn't healed yet.

2. Patients with severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, especially those with myocardial infarction. Mild hypoxia in the air may make patients with cardiovascular diseases relapse or worsen, especially those with cardiac insufficiency, myocardial hypoxia, myocardial infarction and severe hypertension. Patients with cerebrovascular diseases, such as cerebral embolism, cerebral hemorrhage and brain tumor, will get worse because of the roar, vibration and lack of oxygen of aircraft taking off and landing.

3. Patients with severe respiratory diseases, such as emphysema and cor pulmonale, may be aggravated by gas expansion during flight.

4. Patients with severe stomach problems should not fly, so as not to cause the onset or aggravation of the disease. You can't fly within 10 days after gastric surgery, and patients with gastrointestinal bleeding can only fly 3 weeks after hemostasis.

5. Patients with blood diseases. For example, patients with severe anemia can't stand the lack of oxygen in the air. People who think that the hemoglobin level is below 50g/L should not fly.

6. Otolaryngology patients. Patients with acute exudative inflammation of the ear and nose and who have recently undergone middle ear surgery should not travel by air.

7. Mental patients. Such as epilepsy and various mental patients, because the aviation atmosphere is easy to induce acute attacks of diseases, it is not suitable for flying.

8. Pregnant women near delivery and babies within 7 days after birth. Due to the change of air pressure, the respiratory system of newborn babies may not adapt or pregnant women may be premature, especially after 35 weeks of pregnancy, which is not suitable for flying.
